If you are ditching the a/c compressor, you will need a different belt. I left my compressor on, but removed the core.

Ive got no core.  Im going to speak to VWR tommorow to see what belt they use when removing the a/c pump.

Rear seats sounds like a job for while the missus is at work  :smiley:  Know what size spline for the rear seats?

....Yep, but that leaves the runners still in place doesn't it?

Yep. If you wanted to go hard core, you could probably have them out with a smaller spline.

Mike - Think its also a 10, but could be wrong.

I would be interested to know all whats involved with removing the rest of the a/c and details of the belt required. Someone told me that stuff is approx 30kg but not sure if thats accurate.
